Neurodegenerative diseases are a major health problem particularly among the elderly. Drugs to prevent or slow down the death of neurons are urgently needed but are currently unavailable. We previously reported that the c-Raf inhibitor, GW5074 {5-iodo-3-[(3',5'-dibromo-4'-hydroxyphenyl) methylene]-2-indolinone}, is protective in tissue culture and in vivo paradigms of neurodegeneration. However, at doses slightly higher than those at which it is protective, GW5074 displays toxicity when tested in neuronal cultures. We report herein the synthesis, biological evaluation, and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of novel 3-substituted indolin-2-one compounds that are highly neuroprotective but lack the toxicity of GW5074. Of the 45 analogs tested in this study, compounds 7, 37, 39, and 45 were found to be the most potent neuroprotective and thus represent promising lead compounds for preclinical development for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007211 Indoles Benzopyrroles with the nitrogen at the number one carbon adjacent to the benzyl portion, in contrast to ISOINDOLES which have the nitrogen away from the six-membered ring.
D009410 Nerve Degeneration Loss of functional activity and trophic degeneration of nerve axons and their terminal arborizations following the destruction of their cells of origin or interruption of their continuity with these cells. The pathology is characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases. Often the process of nerve degeneration is studied in research on neuroanatomical localization and correlation of the neurophysiology of neural pathways.

D009474 Neurons The basic cellular units of nervous tissue. Each neuron consists of a body, an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the NERVOUS SYSTEM. Nerve Cells,Cell, Nerve,Cells, Nerve,Nerve Cell,Neuron

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.

D018696 Neuroprotective Agents Drugs intended to prevent damage to the brain or spinal cord from ischemia, stroke, convulsions, or trauma. Some must be administered before the event, but others may be effective for some time after. They act by a variety of mechanisms, but often directly or indirectly minimize the damage produced by endogenous excitatory amino acids.
